Green Day announces ‘Revolution Radio’ summer tour

To say the final months of 2016 were a good couple of months for Green Day may be an understatement. In August, they announced plans to release their twelfth studio album and a month later released said album. Then, a few days before the album’s official release, the band revealed a lengthy tour schedule that would find them touring through the rest of 2016 and straight into 2017.

On Monday (Jan. 9), the California punks announced plans to keep the “Revolution Radio” tour going straight through the summer. Green Day’s “Revolution Radio” summer tour will kick off on Aug. 1 at the White River Amphitheatre and wrap up on Sept. 13 at the Sleep Train Amphitheatre in Chula Vista, Calif. According to reports, a couple of more tout dates will be announced including a stop at Wrigley Field in Chicago and the Rose Bowl in Pasadena.

Hitting the North American road alongside Green Day for the 24-date tour will be United Kingdom act, Catfish and the Bottlemen.

Members of Green Day’s Idiot Nation will get the opportunity to buy pre-sale tickets beginning this Tuesday, Jan. 10, at 10 a.m. local time. General public ticket sales will go on sale beginning this Friday, Jan. 13. VIP packages will be available for all the newly added tour stops.

On Tuesday, Jan. 10, Green Day will begin the European leg of the “Revolution Radio” tour. Their first stop will take place at the Pala Alpitour in Turin, Italy.
